Our WhaleTalk course teaches you how to build a complete WhatsApp clone in Swift 2.0 and iOS 9. This is not a toy app. You will be building a chat view controller that is fully responsive with auto layout - all from scratch. The chat functionality goes beyond person to person. Just like in WhatsApp, you will have the ability to start group chats and import contacts with the Contacts Framework. Data will be persisted to Core Data, and it will all be synced to the cloud with Firebase.
